> My brother is brilliant at accents. The only trouble is, he doesn't know he's doing them. When he was backpacking in Australia, we'd get phone calls from him in an aussie accent. When he got pulled for speeding by a Florida cop he mimicked his accent within ten seconds. This left me in the passenger seat fervently wishing he'd shut up so I wouldn't spend the night in a cell!

Och, Laddie! I did that in a restaurant once. T'was a Pizza Hut in Florida, and the waiter looked ta be Middle-Eastern or some such. When the poor lad took our drink orders, I mocked his accent without thinkin' as I said, "I want Mountain Dew!"

My clansmen still make fun 'o me for that!
